About this listen

A fascinating exploration of how to use the power of storytelling to create irresistible pitches, build passionate brand loyalty, motivate teams and lead with charisma.

'Will Storr is a genius' Rory Sutherland
'A captivating and enlightening read . . Will Storr is an unusually talented and insightful writer' Adam Grant

____________________________________________________

Using the latest findings from social psychology, evolutionary psychology, organisational psychology and neuroscience, A Story is a Deal argues that we won't unlock the true power of story if we treat it merely as something we read on a page, see on a screen or hear in a speech. Storr shows how successful stories shape identities, which changes beliefs, drives action and achieves extraordinary results.

With examples ranging from Aztec rituals to Apple's legendary advertising successes (and long-forgotten fails), A Story is a Deal lays out a revolutionary new method for creating the most persuasive messaging: by harnessing the power of our storytelling brains.

Good for marketing strategy and related

Nice concepts of power and social mechanics. Narration a bit difficult for non-native english speakers.

It is the story.

I really enjoyed Will’s book however, his accent is so strong I had to listen to parts several times and turn up the volume to understand him.

Interesting topic

Very smart author, later chapters be come
Hard to follow, and accent becomes heavier for an American audience.
